The album was released on 13 October 1997[1] in the UK, peaking at #7 on the UK Album Chart.[2] Two singles were released from this album, "She's a Good Girl", which reached #28, and "Romeo Me", which scraped in at #39 on the UK Top 40 singles chart.[2] Remixes of "Motorway Man" by producer Steve Osbourne were released on 12" vinyl.

The single for "She's a Good Girl" was revealed to be the first single Joe Thomas bought on BBC Radio 1. In a review for AllMusic, Stephen Thomas Erlewine stated that Pleased to Meet You "demonstrates that Wener's songwriting has strengthened, as her melodies have more weight and her lyrics have more depth," and gave the record a three-star review.[1]
